Every kid should know how to fold a paper hat, and a paper boat, right?
This week, we learned some amazing things that we can create with folded paper. We started with a basic fold, and each made ourselves a paper hat. We discovered that if we wanted our pirate hats to fit our heads, we needed to use a bigger piece of paper!
The paper boats were really fun, and they actually float, too! (we know- we tested them)
Ask your daring kid to tell you the paper craft story of "The Captain and His Ship"...you'll be amazed!
Merry helped us witness "capillary action" with a paper flower that bloomed right before our eyes.
Tyler stepped up in a leadership role, and led the folding instructions in how to make a paper balloon! It was the trickiest fold, but it turned out to be the most popular item. We had heard a rumor that by filling our paper balloon with water, that we could turn it into a water bomb. It's true! We tested this, too. Many squeals of delight could be heard from the parking lot.
I DARE you all to look up how to create something new out of paper. I can't wait to see what you've made.
